Coq Au Vin, the Easy Way image

This recipe uses sherry instead of the usual red wine. From the Lobel Brothers. More herbs can be added if you like, but it's good this way, or even with no herbs at all. I like to add a little more garlic and thyme than the recipe calls for.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I made it with a rotisserie chicken and it was delicious.

This was my first time making coq au vin and it turned out great! The recipe was easy to follow and the chicken was very tender. I will definitely be making this again.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The chicken is always cooked perfectly and the sauce is so flavorful. I love that it's a one-pot meal, which makes cleanup a breeze.

This coq au vin recipe is a keeper! It's easy to follow and the results are amazing. The chicken is fall-off-the-bone tender and the sauce is rich and flavorful. I served it over mashed potatoes and it was a hit with my family.
